[Breakaway]

Cab over, rover!









They forgot the key, so I could not get a ride or even a look inside.

Yes, but does it actually work?

See: Tesla, Nikola.

Re: Swedish Big Rig ( Electric Cab Over)

Typical commie progressive attempt to take over the planet. Don't you know that:

1) You'll have to re-charge every 50 ft. It will take 12 hours.

2) Electricity is $5 a KwHr.

3) Children are dying in the lithium mines.

4) Truck stops will have to put in 500 amp chargers that cost a million dollars each.

5) Texas and California are already out of electricity.

Is anyone making electric construction equipment? The weight of the batteries shouldn't matter there, and even imposing machines have pretty low horsepower engines.

Companies are working on it. The duty cycle can be difficult to define.

There are places where fully loaded equipment is run down hill - charging the batteries, then returned empty discharging the batteries. Trains do it. Mining trucks do it.
